I skipped the olive oil and adjusted the macros. I didn't need the broiler because the cheese melted enough just by covering the pan once the zucchini was cooked. I really enjoyed the flavors and will make this again.

I really wanted to like this but not possible. The texture of the zucchini was horrible the taste of the cheese and bacon could help this.

Bit greasy with amount of olive oil but will have again as something different for breakfast but next time reduce the olive oil.
